I bought and older g3 blue. It had os 9.1. I upgraded to os 10.1. Now I lost my os 9.1. I got an install cd and when I try to install i get the message that my firmware is too old? Any Ideas?

    I got the os 9 install cd. I was going to try to use both os x 10.1 and os 9. The os 9 cd says emac Mac os 9 install.

    How many times does it have to be stated that a bundled OS installation disk works only on the model in the box with the disk?
